SAN FRANCISCO, February l6. = An
Examiner's Helena, Mon., special says:
The first good news received from the
great cattle ranges of Northern Mon.
tana for the past two months came to-
day. During all'this time the thermom.
eter has ranged from Is to 60 degrees
below zero, with scarcely day elapsing
without snow fall and the snow lay to
Q depth of two to four feet upon the
ranges where, owing to last years
droughth the grass was short and dry.
This made it impossible for the cattle to
obtain sufficient food and many were
frozen or starved to death. Large num-
bers have drifted with the storms from
the northward into the Missouri river
where they were crowded into air holes
and drowned. Impassable trails have
prevented any extended communication
with the large ranches and the
full extent of the losses is not
vet known, but from q few meager
reports, many old cattlemen estimate
the losses at fully so per cent.
1t is believed that this will have the ten
dency of breaking up the immense herds
of corporations and that cattle interests
will become segregated and owned in
smaller herds by lesser capitalists, who
will have better facilities for Withstand
ing severe seasons. Telegraphic news
to-day from Fort Shaw, Fort Benton
and Fort Assinaboine show rising ther-
mometer at from 20 to 40 degrees
above zero. Bright, clear snow and
3ight southeast winds portend "Chi-
nook wind" The snow is melting and
definite news of the stock losses during
the most severe winter Montana has
ever known will be soon obtainable.

In Favor of the Veto.

New York, February l6.--Inquiries
by the World show that there is practi-
cally a unanimous call from the Grand
Army men of New York, and other
states for Congress to override the Pres.
ident's veto of the Dependent Pension
bill. Only cne of the general officers
and one or two of the Council OF Admin.
istration that have been heard from sup.
port the veto, but in this city and
Brooklyn the vote of Post Commanders
and leading Grand Army men, who have
been interviewed, stands thirty-three in
favor Of the veto to twenty.one against
it. Editorially the World supports the
veto.

THE SENATE.


WASHINGTON, February l6.-Both
parties of the Senate held an ''Order of
Business" caucus this morning. The list
Of measures of the calendar prepared by
the Republican caucus committee was
laid before the Democratic caucus. Ger.
tain changes were indicated TO the order
in which it was desired that the meas
ures should come up. In the Republi
can caucus, Senat3rs were afforded the
opportunity to express afresh their pref.
erences. Senators Sherman and Harris,
the Chairmen respectively of the caucus
committees. armed with the opirions Of
their caucuses, were authorized to con.
fer with each other and reach q con,pro.
mise upon the points of difference. They
will probably meet tomorrow morning
and arrange definite order of business
for the rest Of the session.
The presiding officer laid before the
Senate what purported to be the creden.
iials of David Turpie, elected Senator
from the State of Indiana for six years,
commencing March 4, 1857. The Ger.
tificate is signed by the Governor, whose
signature is certified by the Secretary of
Slate. 1t was referred. on motion Of
Hoar. to the Committee on Privileges
and Elections.
Mcmillan, from the Committee on
Commerce, reported back the House
River and Harbor bill, with amend.
mcnts, and gave notice that he would
move to take 1t up tomorrow.
The Senate resumed the consideration
of the bill to increase the naval estab-
lishment. Maxey supported it. He was
not only in favor ct building war yes.
sells but also of forlifyipg every seaport
in the country. After the adoption of q
number of amendments the bill was
passed.
Stanford addressed the Senate in favor
of plan for industrial cooperation.
THE HOUSE.
The House to-day insisted upon its
amendments to the Senate Trade Dollar
bill, and agreed to the conference re-.
quested by the Senate.
Belmont, from the Committee on For.
eign Affairs, reported back the Senate
Retaliation bill. with substitute therefor,
which was ordered printed and recon
mit.ed. Belmont gave notice that he
would ask the House to act upon the
measure Wednesday next.
Rice, Of Massachusetts,, gave notice
that he would file minority report.
The only difference in the substitute re.
ported from that drawn up by the sub
committee of the Committee on Foreign
Affairs and heretofore published, is in.
serted after the prohibition against the
entry of any locomotive, car or other
vehicle with any goods that may be con.
tanned therein. The third and last sec.
tion of the subcommittee bill, providing
for the appointment Of a commission to
take testimony Of the losses inflicted by
the Canadian authorities on citizens of
the United States, is stricken out for the
reason that bill covering the same
grounds has been already reported by
the committee. The report accompany
ing the substitute is identical with that
drawn up by the sub committee.
